HOW TO HANDLE BULLS.

Having handled bulls for many years,
and just now having had some extra
trouble with an eight months old ami
NAL. I herewith send you q description
Of a device which may prove useful to
some of your readers: I took . piece
of hard wood. 1 by 5 inches, and cut
of two lengths. 9 inches each; planned
them down smooth; laid them on
top Of each other. and with . brace
and i-inch bit bored . hole at each end
and m in the center. Then took .
strong piece of half-inch hemp rope,
put a knot in one end. drew it through
one piece, and then the other. up to six
inches. knotted it outside. thus forming
the n~ose-piece. The middle holes I used
for the head-piece, which must be adj
justed to the size Of the animals head,
and then under the jaw I put another.
leaving the second knot loose enough
for the animal to eat, but not 80 much
rs to let him get it of his head. and
cutting this rope about long enough to
lead by. In another piece OF wood. 6
inches long. I put . hole at each end to
which I attached the short rope and a
longer rope-acting IS . swivel-and

and stumped him down with q 2O-foot

While Il is urged that farmers
should give greater attention to the
production Of q larger proportion Of
lean meat in hogs. the fact remains
that they can get . better price for lard
than for lean. which will always prompt
them to have the hogs as fat as possible
before killing. Another fact is that
fat a be produced at . smaller cost
than lean. while the hogs sold in a fat

The Care Of the Ear.

Under ordinary conditions the healthy
ear does not need to be protected from
cold; only during extreme cold OF
stormy or rainy weather ought cotton
wool to be inserted into children's ears
especially. The same precaution must
be taken in the case of every ear pre-
disposed to Inflammation. All persons
whose membranes are perforated ought
to protect their ear with cotton wool
The entrance Of cold fluids into any ga
must always be prevented; and 50. while
bathing or diving the ear ought to b.
plugged. Patients with perforations o
the membrane should be very careful,
in this respect, IS violent Inflammation
may be caused by the entrance Of cole
water. Zedieo- CAirsrgiesl yewsxel

AnecdOte of Margaret Fuller,

1.-THE Lounger, in The Critic, re-
lates the following fresh anecdote OF
Margaret Fuller: 4
"One evening Miss Fuller, with a
friend, took a suburban train to at.
tend a small social gathering. She
had dressed with unusal care, the
finishing touchbeing a bunch OF beauti-
full LIGHTHOUSE flowers which she wore in
her corsage. When the conductor came
into the car to collect the fares, Mar.
garet suddenly remembered that her
pocketbook was in the dress she had
left at home. Her companion was in
the same plight as herself; and there
was nothing to be done but to explain
matters to the conductor. That Off.
cial proved obdurate, no Eever; the
ladies were both strangers to him
and their excuse was hackneyed and
transparent; he would be Obliged to
leave them at the next waystation.
Snatching the bouquet from beneath
her cloak, Margaret rose to her feet
with queenlike dignity and exclaimed:
rs there no one in this car who, will
purchase these howere?' A gentienan
instantly came forward and paid the
fares Of the two ladies, bat, it IS need
less to say, refused to take the bou-
.quet. The card which Margaret ak.
changed with him, however, he keeps
to this day. and the incident mas the
beginning Of pleasant acquaintance
between them sA s.,.s s. E (. }j65> L

A New Bone Cave in Belgium

Human remains which apparently
belong to the age of the mammoth and
rhinoceros, have been discovered in q
Belgian cave. The discovery has been
made by M. NJ. Marcel de Puy& and
Sohest IN the grotto of Biche-aux.
Roches. near Spy, in the province Of
Manner. The floor of the cave consists
of layer of brown clay. which con-
tanned a skull of comparatively recent
age. Under this was a bone bed OF
calcerous tufa containing remains of
the elephant and = species of deer. and
flint weapons, showing traces of use.
Under this bed was second layer OF
ossiferous earth, containing remains OF
rhnocerl and deer. and rich in fints,
bone implements, ivory plates of the
mammoth tusk curved with rude fig.
ures. and fragments of pottery, includ.
ing the bottom of avase Of regular form
and baked. Beneath this bed was ga.
other layer of brown CLAY with numer.
Gus bony fragments. Here, at from
five 10 six meters from the entrance to
the cave, two human skeletons were
found in u natural position, and proba.
bly, entombed there. Along with tho
skeletons were found other objects,
such us have been mentioned above.
Under this bed was the barren carbon.
iferous limestone rock. The skulls are
of the type of the Neanderthal Uranium.
the bones being very thick % nm. }:
one, that of a woman, is dolicocephal-
Gus. The frontal sinus is very marked,
and the brow low. In short. the char.
acteristcs of the skulls approach, for
the most part, those of inferior races,
and the other bones found seem to in
dictate a race of short men. The con-
cluson drawn from the discovery by
M. Nadaillac is that the Neander, that
race Of men which Mr.. Quaterfages has
shown to be persistent through the
ages, even to the present day, withou,
being incompatible with very marked
intellectual development, once lived on
tho banks of the Mouse in most remote
times, working the flint, utilizing the
bones of animals and the tl,sks of the
mammoth. making and firing vases OF
clay. burying their dead, and, in fine,
possessing the rudiments of civiliza,
